This book treads new ground by bringing the Evangelical and
Dissenting movements within Christianity into close engagement with
one another. While Evangelicalism and Dissent both have well
established historiographies, there are few books that specifically
explore the relationship between the two. Thus, this complex
relationship is often overlooked and underemphasised. The volume is
organised chronologically, covering the period from the late
seventeenth century to the closing decades of the twentieth
century. Some chapters deal with specific centuries but others
chart developments across the whole period covered by the book.
Chapters are balanced between those that concentrate on an
individual, such as George Whitefield or John Stott, and those that
focus on particular denominational groups like Wesleyan Methodism,
Congregationalism or the 'Black Majority Churches'. The result is a
new insight into the cross pollination of these movements that will
help the reader to understand modern Christianity in England and
Wales more fully. Offering a fresh look at the development of
Evangelicalism and Dissent, this volume will be of keen interest to
any scholar of Religious Studies, Church History, Theology or
modern Britain.
